Free wireless internet access is accessible in the Library to any patron who comes in with a laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Start up your device and open your web browser and you should connect to the wireless network. If necessary, change your connection settings to obtain an IP address automatically then restart your laptop.

As with any Wi-Fi access, you should disable file sharing and print sharing and maintain up-to-date anti-virus protection. Printing is available from personal devices using the PrinterOn App or website. Printing is also available from the Library's public computers.

As a first-time user, review the Library's Acceptable Use Policy, and sign a release form stating that you understand it. A parent or legal guardian must sign the form for a child under 17.

Log into a computer or, if all PCs are in use, reserve the next available PC. Computers may be used for 60 minutes. Computer time may be extended if there are no other patrons waiting to use a computer.

Printing is available for $0.15 per page for black-and-white prints and $1.00 per page for color prints.

We can request items for you from other libraries through Interlibrary Loan. Availability and loan periods may vary. We will notify you of any fees charged by the lending library.

Rowlett residents may obtain a TexShare card to borrow materials from participating libraries. To obtain a TexShare card you must have been a Library card holder with Rowlett Public Library for at least six months and your account must be in good standing. Lending policies will vary by library.

You must present your valid library card to the Circulation Staff to check out any materials. Be sure you have your card with you when you come to the Library (a driver's license may also be used to identify an account).

The extended use fee for books, audio books, videos / DVDs, music CDs and magazines is $0.20 per day (we do not count the days that the Library is closed).

A maximum fine of $10 per item is charged. If an item is overdue for an extended amount of time the material will go to a lost status and the price of the book will be added to your account. The price of the book will come off of your account if the overdue item is returned, but any fines associated with the item will remain on the account.
